Using Hands Free Active on Intercom 73

Returning to the Certain brands of headsets enter a power-saving mode that prevents the Headset After a telephone from ringing for one or more calls when both of these

Long Delay circumstances are true:

■The headset amplifier buttons for Mute and On are both set to On.

■The handset is off the phone for a long time (for instance, overnight).

It may take a few minutes for your headset to return from the power-saving mode to the active mode when calls first come in, so your telephone may not ring until the headset has returned to active mode, and you may miss a call.

If you plan to not use the headset for a long time (for instance, overnight), 3Com recommends that you set the mute and headset buttons on the amplifier to Off and hang up the handset on your telephone. When you are ready to receive calls again, set up the headset for receiving calls:

1Pick up the handset on your telephone and set it on your desk.

2Put on the headset. On the amplifier, set the headset button to On.

Using Hands Free You can use your phone as an intercom. You can answer internal Active on Intercom (intercom) calls without picking up the handset. When you receive an

internal call, your telephone sounds a tone and activates the speaker phone.

An external call (a call from outside your NBX system) rings to your telephone as usual.
